Yeah, we weren't going to tell anyone until I was two months or so along but my sister (who's engaged) called me literally an hour after I peed on the stick and said that she and her fiance were moving their wedding up to April from August. I told her this lie about going on family vacation with DH's parents and told her I'd call her back.
Finally finally DH came home and I told him. He was so happy!! Then I told him about my sister, and he said that we had to tell them. They wanted to get married basically on my due date and I'm the maid of honor. So, we told my sister... then I got to thinking: It's not fair that only she knows...so let's tell the rest of the family. So we did. Then just last week, my DH's best friend somehow found out and now the word is out.
Glad to hear that you can make it pretty far with stretchy-waisted pants. I love Target. I definitely plan on going there. I have grown out of all my pants because of IBS, so I definitely need more pants.
Wow, eight weeks left and people are shocked! May I ask how much weight you've gained? I'm worried about that. I'm up three pounds already and I'm only seven weeks today. My mom gained about 55 pounds with me and about 30 pounds with my sister. Hopefully I'll land somewhere in between.
Do you work out? I found a great video FitMama. It has salsa dancing and fat-burning yoga. It's great for the days when I have energy.
I've tried not to fall asleep while watching TV in the evenings, but I'm just so dang bone tired that I can't help it. On Sunday, we did absolutely did NOTHING all day, and that tired me out also. But I was also too tired to go out and do anything. Jeez.
Question for ya, my tummy is totally sticking out. I don't know if it's because of IBS, baby, or the fact that I'm just not "sucking it in" anymore. Did you experience that this early?
We have to names picked out: Boden (or Bodin) Michael for a boy and Payton Thomas for a girl. We only want two kids and my dad's middle name is Thomas and I wanted one of my kids to at least have his name. So, she gets it!!
You have names picked out? Are you keeping them a secret?
Sorry for the long post!!!
